Albany International Reports Second-Quarter 2026 Results

Key Terms

adjusted ebitda financial

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

adjusted eps financial

Adjusted earnings per share (adjusted eps) is a measure of a company's profit per share that has been modified to exclude certain one-time or unusual items, such as costs from restructuring or asset sales. It provides a clearer picture of the company’s core performance by removing events that may distort the usual earnings. Investors use adjusted eps to better understand a company's ongoing profitability and compare it more accurately over time.

non-gaap measure financial

A non-GAAP measure is a company-crafted financial metric that adjusts or excludes items from standard accounting numbers to highlight what management sees as the business’s core performance. Investors use these figures like a filtered photo to reveal trends or cash flow drivers that raw accounting totals might hide, but because companies decide which items to remove, these measures should be compared with standard statements to avoid being misled.

constant currency financial

Constant currency is a way of measuring financial results that removes the effects of changes in currency exchange rates. It allows for a clearer comparison of a company's performance over time by showing what the numbers would look like if exchange rates had stayed the same. This helps investors understand whether growth comes from actual business improvements or just currency fluctuations.

PORTSMOUTH, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Albany International Corp. (NYSE:AIN) today reported operating results for its second quarter of 2026, which ended June 30, 2026.

Gunnar Kleveland, Albany International’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our second-quarter performance delivered the strongest Adjusted EBITDA we have achieved in the past two years and grew 11.5% year-over-year, despite modestly lower-than-expected revenue due to several discrete factors. This result reflects the progress we have made to build a more nimble company and underscores the strength of our operating model, our focus on profitable growth, and the dedication of the Albany team."

Kleveland continued, “In Engineered Composites, we are seeing the benefits of a refined operating model centered on our innovative technologies, which enable lighter-weight, more durable solutions for customers across commercial aerospace, defense, and space applications. Our recent participation at the Farnborough International Airshow reinforced the value of our business, as leading OEMs and government stakeholders engaged with us to explore solutions enabled by our innovative material science. In Machine Clothing, we are applying that same focus on innovation to expand opportunities for our high-value, performance-driven products across a broader range of uses.”

Consolidated Results

The Company’s net revenues were $329.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $311.4 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by higher volume in the Engineered Composites business, offset by some end-market softness in Machine Clothing along with downtime related to an equipment failure in the Machine Clothing business.

Gross profit of $107.9 million in the second quarter of 2026 was 10.7% higher than $97.5 million reported for the same period of 2025, as a result of cost controls in Machine Clothing and a favorable mix of aerospace and defense programs in the Engineered Composites business.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $56.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $58.5 million in the same period of 2025, driven primarily by cost containment initiatives.

Operating income was $32.1 million, compared to $22.3 million in the prior year, an increase of 44.3%, primarily driven by stronger gross profit and cost containment initiatives.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 32.0% compared to a 31.3% effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2025.

The net income attributable to the Company was $17.4 million, or $0.61 per share on a basic and diluted basis, compared to $9.2 million, or $0.31 per share in the second quarter of 2025.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share (or Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP measure) was $0.82 per share, compared to $0.57 per share for the same period of last year.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $57.8 million, compared to $51.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 11.5%, due to stronger revenue and operating profit. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.6% and 16.7% in the prior year, up 90 basis points as a result of stronger contribution from Engineered Composites.

Will Station, Albany International’s Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are pleased with our second-quarter performance, as disciplined execution and a more focused operating model drove meaningful year-over-year improvement in profitability. As we look to the balance of the year, we remain well positioned to maintain our growth trajectory. In Engineered Composites, we expect continued strength as multiple programs scale and we benefit from our focus on quality of earnings, while in Machine Clothing, we remain focused on execution and margin stability as we manage a fluid demand environment across the geographies we serve.”

Machine Clothing

Machine Clothing's net revenues decreased 2.4% after adjusting for currency translation, primarily driven by cyclical declines in the Americas and machine downtime in that region.

Machine Clothing’s adjusted EBITDA margin was 28.0%, compared to 28.9% in the second quarter of 2025. The margin decline is primarily impacted by foreign currency impacts related to a weaker U.S. dollar. On a constant currency basis, margins were up slightly at 29.0% despite lower volumes, driven by synergies and efficiency gains across the network.

Engineered Composites

Engineered Composites net revenues increased 14.2% after adjusting for currency translation, driven by strength across commercial and defense programs, most notably on the commercial side within the LEAP program, and on the defense side under the CH-53K and missile programs.

Adjusted EBITDA margin was 13.3%, compared to 8.5% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in margin was driven by the continued focus on quality of earnings and the scaling of more profitable programs.

Capital Allocation Balance Sheet

Capital expenditures were $11.9 million, compared to $14.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, and were driven primarily by facility optimizations. Research and development expenses totaled $11.7 million, compared to $12.6 million in the second quarter of 2025, consistent with the Company’s commitment to advancing proprietary technologies and supporting long-term growth in both Machine Clothing and Engineered Composites.

Albany ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $77.3 million and total debt of $450.7 million, resulting in a net debt position of $373.3 million. The Company maintains significant financial flexibility and liquidity to support ongoing investment initiatives while continuing to return capital to shareholders.

Outlook for the Third Quarter of 2026

• Consolidated net revenue between $320 million and $330 million
• Machine Clothing net revenue between $165 million and $170 million
• Engineered Composite net revenue between $155 million and $160 million
• Adjusted EPS between $0.60 and $0.70
• Third-quarter effective tax rate of 31.5%

Free cash flow is defined as GAAP "Net cash provided by operating activities" in a period less "Purchases of property, plant and equipment" and "Purchased software" in the same period. Management believes free cash flow provides an important perspective on our ability to generate cash from our business operations and, as such, that it is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance. Management uses free cash flow internally to assess overall liquidity. The following table illustrates the calculation of free cash flow:

	Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
	2026				2025				2026				2025

Non-GAAP Measures

This release, including the conference call commentary associated with this release, contains certain non-GAAP measures, that should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Such non-GAAP measures include net revenues and percent change in net revenues, excluding the impact of currency translation effects; adjusted net revenues; Adjusted Gross profit/(loss); Adjusted Operating income/(loss);EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin; Net debt; Net leverage ratio; Adjusted Net Income; and Adjusted Diluted earnings per share (or Adjusted EPS). Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide additional useful information to investors regarding the Company’s operational performance.

Presenting Net revenues and change in Net revenues, after currency effects are excluded, provides management and investors insight into underlying revenues trends. Net revenues, or percent changes in net revenues, excluding currency rate effects, are calculated by converting amounts reported in local currencies into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of a prior period. These current year revenues converted at prior year rates are then compared to the U.S. dollar amount as reported in the prior period.

EBITDA (calculated as net income excluding interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization), Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are performance measures that relate to the Company’s continuing operations. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding costs or benefits that are not reflective of the Company’s ongoing or expected future operational performance. Such excluded costs or benefits do not consist of normal, recurring cash items necessary to generate revenues or operate our business. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net revenues.

Adjusted Net Income is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The company defines Adjusted Net Income to exclude costs related to the review of strategic alternatives for its structures assembly business, which could include a potential sale of that portion of the business. Such excluded adjustments to profitability to future contracts do not consist of items that are considered normal or recurring in the course of continued business operations.

The Company defines Adjusted EPS as diluted earnings per share (GAAP), adjusted by the after tax per share amount of costs or benefits not reflective of the Company’s ongoing or expected future operational performance. The income tax effects are calculated using the applicable statutory income tax rate of the jurisdictions where such costs or benefits were incurred or the effective tax rate applicable to total company results.

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Net debt aids investors in understanding the Company’s debt position if all available cash were applied to pay down indebtedness.

We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release may contain statements, estimates, guidance or projections that constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined under U.S. federal securities laws. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “look for,” “guidance,” “guide,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. Because forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties (including, without limitation, those set forth in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements in this release or in the webcast include, without limitation, statements about macroeconomic conditions, including inflationary cost pressures, as well as global events, which include but are not limited to geopolitical events; paper-industry trends and conditions during 2026 and in future years; expectations in 2026 and in future periods of revenues, Adjusted Net Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA (both in dollars and as a percentage of net revenues), Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, income, gross profit, gross margin, cash flows and other financial items in each of the Company’s businesses, and for the Company as a whole; the timing and impact of production and development programs in the Company’s AEC business segment and the revenues growth potential of key AEC programs, as well as AEC as a whole; the amount and timing of capital expenditures, future tax rates and cash paid for taxes, depreciation and amortization; future debt and net debt levels and debt covenant ratios; and changes in currency rates and their impact on future revaluation gains and losses. Furthermore, a change in any one or more of the foregoing factors could have a material effect on the Company’s financial results in any period. Such statements are based on current expectations, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

Statements expressing management’s assessments of the growth potential of its businesses, or referring to earlier assessments of such potential, are not intended as forecasts of actual future growth, and should not be relied on as such. While management believes such assessments to have a reasonable basis, such assessments are, by their nature, inherently uncertain. This release and earlier releases set forth a number of assumptions regarding these assessments, including historical results, independent forecasts regarding the markets in which these businesses operate, and the timing and magnitude of orders for our customers’ products. Historical growth rates are no guarantee of future growth, and such independent forecasts and assumptions could prove materially incorrect in some cases.
